TVM The Virtual Meeting

Visual Communications Software for Macintosh and Windows Computers

Using TVM Instead Of Video Conferencing

What you get with a Video Conferencing system:

You get to see the facial expressions and mouth movement of the person you're talking to.
In most cases you can only connect to one location. Multi location video conferencing is becoming available but at many times the cost of two location video conferencing.

What you get with a Multimedia Conferencing system:

A high quality color image of the person who is currently speaking on the audio conference call.
You do not get distracted by the poor synchronization, low frame rate and artifacts of the compression provided by a video compressor or CODEC.
The ability to conference between several locations simultaneously. Because the system sends very small messages it doesn't require a high bandwidth connection. This makes it feasible for many locations to participate in a meeting.
The ability to view Mackintosh or Windows visual aids on their native screens. Macintosh or Windows visual aids don't need to be degraded by being converted to NTSC and then compressed by the CODEC in a video conference.
The ability to raise your hand electronically to get a chance to speak.
A built-in live WhiteBoard provides a shared workspace capable of displaying sketches to everyone in the conference as they are being drawn.
A set of special conferencing savvy applications like the WhiteBoard and QuickTime Movie / Slide player. These applications broadcast events like menu selections and sketching to the other copies of the same applications that are running on all the Computers' in the meeting.
Integration with ANY Macintosh or Windows application. Any Macintosh or Windows application can be used to screen share it's native documents. Opening Excel With a Spreadsheet on a broadcasting Computer will cause Excel to be launched and that same Spreadsheet will be displayed on all other Computers
Distributed architecture keeps network traffic low.
Multiple locations at a low cost.
